Movenpick Resort & Spa Boracay

The bar and restaurant are good. The front desk and guest service people are nice and polite, yet the actual service they delivered are below standard. For example, the air con is leaking water. Having called the guest service, they said that they are sending some one right away. Yet the right away actually took 45 mins. They said they have fixed the issue and sent a nice card and fruits. Yet the air con is still leaking water the 2nd day. The nice and polite doesn’t translate into quality and service guests actually need….

This is my 2nd night stay and I loved it! I experienced one of the best services in the hospitality industry in Movenpick. As a solo traveler, I feel very at home here. I stayed for 2 nights and would've stayed longer if my schedule permitted me. Ish, in the reception, greeted me warmly during check-in and I appreciated being asked how the trip was getting there. It felt genuine. all of the staff felt very approachable and is always willing to go a step further from every request I made. Their breakfast buffet is the best breakfast buffet I've had so far. I've stayed at a few 5-star hotels around the Philippines and in Hong Kong, China, and Vietnam but this was the best one so far. Each dish has been "made with love" as they say. There is a great selection of beverages, pastries and dishes. The facilities are well kept and there is ample staff to attend to any need in any area around the resort. The room was spacious and the toiletries were very well thought of. When I arrived, it was clean, and felt very homey. I loved the peaceful morning walks along the private beach. I've mostly stayed in the main beach every time I go to Boracay but it can get crowded and busy even early in the morning so the privacy is a great selling point to this area especially for those who just want to lounge by the beach and feel the morning breeze. The only thing I feel needs to be improved is the drain in the shower in my room. It takes a while for it to drain so while showering, expect to soak your feet on the floor water. I think it takes about 15 minutes after I shower for the water to dissipate. All in all, am I coming back? For sure! Still solo? No, I'm confident anyone I invite to join me will experience the same satisfaction I had. :)

What a resort! From check in to check out everything was incredible. Shoutout to the beach club staff especially Romel, Cid and the rest of the incredible guys. Also the two singers/dancers/fire performers are easily some of the most entertaining and talented performers I’ve seen for a long time. I will be back!

The hotel facilities and location are great. White beach with palm trees and a huge swimming pool for adults and children. Unfortunately the restaurant quality can not keep up with a 5-star hotel standard.

Been to bora 10 yrs ago single, with a tight budget. Now, after 10 yrs after, happily married with my 2 kids. The stay is superb and employeed are very courteous and accomodating. Everything is 5/5 if you are looking for a quite time with family and privacy. The resort is now crowded and the beach is very exclusive, the reason I booked the place. Cons, just far from the center or dmall. but, doesnt matter. My husband and kids love the stay and definetely will recommend and be back. Avail the airport transfer vv, and everything was smooth sailing and hassle free.

We had a great experience at the Movenpick. They were very accommodating when we requested a room change and assisted with all our needs. Staff is friendly and efficient. The resort had many activities as well as entertainment during the day and evenings. Our favorite was the live music, dj and fire shows. We also went for spa treatments which was fantastic. Even their in house doctor was great! Breakfast was amazing with big variety. The food was well prepared. They have 3 different dining options for lunch and dinner as well as a little street food market on some evenings. We also indulged ourselves in chocolate hour everyday. Our room was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. Overall we had a fantastic experience.

Very nice holiday resort with a beautiful beach. Clearly recommended. They offer a shuttle to White Beach or you order a Tuktuk. It’s a quiet resort for relaxing and families.

Amazing staff, always friendly and helpful. The resort is beautiful and great private beach. Would definitely stay again!

Beautiful hotel outdoor with lots of tropical plants. Food is tasty. Accommodation is clean. Staff friendly. Rooms are fine, not the most modern but compared to everything else we had on the Philippines the nicest and the bed is huge and comfortable. Snorkeling in the ocean you can see some fishes and sea kraits. The staff especially makes you feel very welcome and made our stay exceptional. Especially the bar staff and towel/water activity staff - thank you! The pool area is huge children playground and quite noisy. An adult only area would solve that problem for the childless. Happy hour from 4-5 pm for reasonable prices 450-500 + 10% service fee pesos, BUT you can only take it to the beach in a paper cup (which really is no fun!). In the evening hanging by the pool bar was nice, always a bit busy but never loud or annoying. All food of all restaurant can be ordered to outdoor pool bar area and we had lovely evenings there. I can recommend the island ceviche and spicy salmon/tuna bowl a lot. Renting a scooter via an external service but in the hotel is ridiculously expensive 2500 pesos/day. The hotel offers a shuttle but could offer a view more choices. We went diving from the beach (2500 pesos one dive + 500 pesos for equipment) a bit more expensive than if you do it externally (but there is also a tour selling guy right next to the hotel in the same beach) but with Mövenpick you are picked up right at the beach and do not loose time with transport to White Beach and trying on you cloths etc. Our dive instructor Carlos from Scottis Dive School was great! All equipment will be later out for you on the boat, no trying on procedure needed beforehand and tank/west will be onboard if boat already put together and waiting. It’s very comfy this way and we loved it.
